Oh Baby!

In a previous post, I mentioned that I taught my friend Ann, who was a star student, to knit. She knitted this baby hat for a friend as her very first project!! Bravo, Ann!

While I we were knitting, I managed to make a hat for her pudgy and adorable baby Josh out of yarn that I purchased on a mini yarn crawl at an LYS.


Josh is such an adorable baby!

Project: Josh's Baby Hat
Pattern: My own take on the baby knot hat. I don't recall exactly what I did, but I did about 4-5 rows of 2x2 rib, worked in St st for about 3 rows, then I repeated 1 purl and about 7 St st until it was time to decrease, ending on a purl round before rapidly decreasing to get that gathered look. The knot is an i-cord.
Yarn: Berroco Ultra Alpaca

Joshie got so many compliments. While wearing it, he was called a "Fashion Icon" at a dinner party:)
